I’ve been working since 14 years young so I have a plethora of soft and transferable skills to offer alongside my eagerness to add value to a company that I can potentially grow with .
Skills:
Time management, Team-oriented yet effective working independently, customer service, processing payment and billing, clear communication , data entry, attention to detail, handling repetitive tasks with out losing accuracy, reliability, inventory tracking, creative problem solving.
Previous roles :
My early roles were predominantly within the service industry involving customer service and restaurant work.
My following roles involve more hands on work involving warehouse work, using inventory systems, RF scanners, and intense ability to adapt to fast pace environments
Current role:
My current role is a guest
service representative at a hotel front desk part time. This is what I’m hoping will heko increase my likeliness of landing a position.
As this involves recent face to face customer service and interaction and may align with work from home customer service roles. Although I’m open to what ever work from home options you see fit or open to a new comer into remote work.
I earlier applied to 30+ remote roles that I Accesed from paying monthly membership on virtual vocations website earlier this year. Luckily the jobs were real and some responded with denial emails.
I’ve also applied to the commonly known places as of foundever, teleperfomance, concentrix as well as XVI. I had interview opportunities with XVI, I’m looking to possibly schedule another.
Although my interview skills are low, I have limited business English proficiency and my answers do not always roll off smooth. which is something I am currently improving and researching more into, although my work ethic speaks for itself.
I plan to possibly look into IT field later although I am open to commit within any industry that is compatible with what I have to currently offer.
I lastly will try to incorporate consistent usage, practice and research of these following things that may help boost my landing capabilities
Microsoft Excel
Microsoft Outlook
Microsoft Teams
Slack
Zendesk
Salesforce
Typing (aim for 60–70 WPM)
Professional email writing
Customer de-escalation techniques

If you have messy data you'd like to understand or organize. I'd be happy to help!
I've had a really stressful week at work and could use some perspective. I work remotely, and a coworker is known for being very blunt and swearing a lot. After I wasn't able to complete something and let him down, he said some pretty hurtful things, including that if something like this happened again, he'd escalate it and that I'd get fired. The whole interaction really got to me. I ended up breaking down and crying afterward because I've already been under a lot of stress this week. I'm not trying to avoid responsibility. I know I need to improve. I want to understand whether comments like this from a coworker are common in the workplace or unusual. Has anyone dealt with something similar? How seriously did you take it, and how did you handle it?
Hi everyone. I'm a 31F in the US who has a bachelor's degree in Medical and Health Services Management, but I have the unfortunate situation of where if I try to apply for positions that are looking for people with that degree, I lack the experience. If I apply for entry-level jobs at hospitals, I am overqualified even if I want to work.
Then, after some unfortunate circumstances at my old workplace involving discrimination and me needing to get the EEOC involved, I decided to go in another industry and take a BlueLedge course offered by my college for legal transcribing. I finished the course, used their job boards, and unfortunately got rejected by one of the potential employers. (It was Allegis/Veritext and I read apparently they're like the Walmart of legal transcribing, so maybe it was a blessing?)
I honestly am just gobsmacked at what else to do. I feel I have all of this education and nothing to show for it. What should I do, if at all, to try to get my foot in the door with legal transcribing or with my education? I've already read here that you don't need to be AAERT certified, but I am not only scared but also really anxious in dealing with an industry I am not familiar with.
As for the medical field, I live in an area where it's all about WHO you know, and it's not easy for me as someone who never got around to networking and can't be bothered to due to personal reasons like complicated grief. I'm not begging for a job, but just to be pointed in the right direction on what to do with my education. I would gladly appreciate it.
I've had like 3 or 4 failed attempts, but I will still try again whenever I'm ready. Sometimes, I could tell that it's nearly impossible to pass the test. So, for those who have passed the Legal Entrance Exam, how many attempts did it take to finally succeed?
Hi everyone,
I have a Master's degree in Applied Mathematics and i have completed several courses in Machine Learning, My English is good, despite the fact that i am not a native speaker of english, I'm looking to find online/remote work but I'm not sure where to start, I don't have much knowledge of which platforms or job types are realistic for someone with my background, for salary i am good with anything more than 300 dollars/ month
and few questions I have:
I started doing transcription about six months ago through a couple of the bigger platforms and at first I was averaging around 12-15 an hour once I got the hang of it. Nothing amazing but decent for flexible work I can do from home.Lately though the available files seem way harder or just lower quality audio. I'm spending more time rewinding and guessing at unclear words and my effective rate has dropped to maybe 8-9 an hour on a good day. I'm wondering if the easier files are getting snatched up faster now or if the platforms are just sending out worse batches.I've tried applying to a few other transcription sites but most have waitlists or want you to pass tests that feel designed to reject people. One site made me transcribe a 10 minute sample with heavy accents and background noise just for the application and then never got back to me.Is anyone else seeing this or am I just getting unlucky with what I pick up? I'm debating whether to stick with it and hope it evens out or start looking at other types of online work. I don't have a ton of specialized skills but I'm a fast typer and generally good with English. Any suggestions for similar work that might be more stable would be appreciated.
How do you get the stuff you're entering data from? Is it like scanned forms that you're typing into a screen, or is the stuff mailed to you, or what?
I had been working on there for over a year. Paid pretty well and loved that I could log on everyday and choose tasks to do then get a payout weekly. Made thousands of dollars since I had been using it and never used AI for my responses or tried to sandbag the clock.
I was going to use it to make money over the summer but my account got terminated last week with no explanation. I've heard of this happening to other people on here, so it seems like my time was just up. Now I'm looking for other sites but it seems like a lot of other sites offer no consistent work or have ridiculous onboarding processes. I'm in the US and have experience in writing
I’ve been looking into Modsquad and saw some posts from years ago saying it’s terrible, but what about now? Are they still just as bad? Has anyone applied recently and had a better experience?
I keep seeing virtual assistant work pushed everywhere as the way to work from home and i can't tell if it's legit or another scam funnel. So what is a virtual assistant really, like what do you actually do day to day. Do clients expect you to know specific tools already or do they train you? and is the money actually liveable or is everyone underpaid. not looking for a get rich thing, just want to know if this is a real career path before i spend time learning it. people doing it now, is it worth getting into in 2026.
